Wholesale Premium Raw Makhana · Est. 1999
A family business since 1999, dealing in raw makhana across five suta grades — sourced from Bihar, graded in-house, and sold by the sack or the master bag from our shop in Khari Baoli.
Why RPVP
We buy makhana at source, grade it ourselves, and supply it to the people who resell, pack or serve it. No layers in between.
We buy directly from growers in Bihar's makhana belt, not through intermediaries.
Our own facility in Bihar sizes and sorts every lot by suta before it ships.
Every lot is checked for size, moisture and broken seeds before it leaves.
Wholesale rates quoted against the day's market — the same way the mandi works.
A family business the trade has bought from for over 25 years.
Based in Delhi's main dry-fruit market, so we see arrivals and prices first.
The Suta System
Makhana is graded by suta — the bigger the seed, the higher the grade. Here's what we stock, and what each grade is usually bought for.

Farm to fox nut
Every fox nut we sell travels the same eight steps — from a lotus seed in a Bihar pond to a sealed pack in your inward. Here's the whole journey.
Lotus (makhana) seed from Bihar's ponds
Grown in shallow wetland ponds
Seeds collected from the pond bed
Spread and dried in the sun
Roasted in cast-iron at high heat
Struck so the kernel pops into a fox nut
Sized by suta at our facility
Bulk sacks or retail master bags
Steps 7 & 8 happen at RPVP — the rest we oversee at source in Bihar
